很多年前买了这本书，没看。看了1984，动物农场，我们。你这么一说，马上拿出来读。最近对东欧特别感兴趣。

Well, once again, it looks like the spam filter insists I should be eating more soma, if I really wanted my comments posted here. Or, I should limit them to just saying hello (?).

Sadly, this is not some Huxley-an dystopia, but reality itself, as real as it can be on the Internet. Which actually proves the point Huxley was trying to make, almost a century ago: (induced) happiness numbs and enslaves a society. Orwell got it wrong.
